Is this sentence correct?

The distance between my home and your home is half the distance of my home to college.

Thanks

Home is not exactly a location, but still your sentence would be unremarkable in everyday conversation. It rather sloppily condenses the final phrase, but people do talk like that. "

Home is not exactly a location, but still your sentence would be unremarkable in everyday conversation. It rather sloppily condenses the final phrase, but people do talk like that. In more careful speech I might say,"The distance between my house and yours is half the distance from my house to the college."
